And you don't have to be a master to breathe a second life into ordinary plastic. You just need to have a little patience and imagination.

Crafts are quite simple and everyone can do such things with their own hands. Or maybe for someone this business will become a real hobby.

Useful things from garbage

Plastic bottles come in different shapes. They are also different in color and size. Therefore, it is quite possible to make small decor items for the garden plot from them. And for a summer residence, plastic furniture or even a summer gazebo built from the same plastic utensils is quite suitable.

And even caps from plastic bottles in skillful hands can turn into real masterpieces - mosaics on the walls, a hot stand, cute toys for a child and other useful little things.

Everyone can make this or that little thing. This is where fantasy plays the main role. After all, the material for making crafts is almost everywhere. They can be found in the park, on lawns, near the river and in landfills.

And collecting them for his creativity, a person thereby purifies nature from harmful things. After all, plastic today has become a real disaster that threatens the environment. This material is durable, so the constructed crafts from plastic bottles will serve and delight for a long time.

Where to begin

In every decision, the main thing is a plan of action. In order to start working on the craft, you will need the following:

a detailed description and photo of crafts from plastic bottles or one separate craft to choose from;
bottles of suitable sizes and colors;
additional materials and tools that may come in handy: a knife, scissors, adhesive tape, glue, paint, fabrics, etc.

Then you just need to be patient and follow the instructions. And soon the children will enjoy the new fabulous playground, the guests will be happy to spend time in the “almost crystal” gazebo, and the hostess will appreciate the unusual practical appliances in the kitchen.

Boxes

You can make an excellent box from plastic bottles, in which it will be convenient to store various little things: hair ties, buttons, paper clips. To do this, you need two lower parts of plastic bottles of the same size. They are interconnected by a zipper, which is sewn along the edges.

Or a simpler option is to cut off the top of the bottle in the place where it begins to narrow. The container is ready. It remains to decorate the bottle with decorative ribbon, buttons and beads. They are glued on. Sew a cap from the fabric, which is tightened with a cord and glue it to the edge of the container in the same way.

And it’s not at all difficult to make a convenient and original sandwich container that you won’t be ashamed to take to school or work. The main thing is to decorate it with a plan. And it is done in just a few steps.

The bathroom also has a place for a plastic box in which you can put all the necessary accessories: toothpastes and brushes, washcloths and shampoos. If these boxes are hung on the wall one above the other, then you can free up space.

Plastic bottles can make an unusual stand for pencils and pens. It is enough to cut it in a circle in the shape of a muzzle of a cat or an owl and paint it. In the same technique, a vase for flowers is made. Only for its stability, a handful of small pebbles should be poured onto the bottom.

Playground toys and decorations

To decorate playgrounds, decorations are made in the form of plants, animals and even insects.

For a palm tree, you need about 15 brown bottles, from which the trunk of a palm tree is made, and 7-10 green bottles for leaves. The barrel is assembled from bottles cut across, stringing them on a frame made of a strong rod.

To create leaves, green bottles need to be cut lengthwise, forming the desired shape. To make longer leaves, you need to attach an additional one to the main sheet using a stapler.

You can decorate your garden plot even in winter. Funny penguins in colorful hats and scarves will cheer you up on a cold winter day. You can make penguins of different sizes. For one bird, you need two identical bottles that have a "waist" at the bottom.

This bottle needs to be cut in half. This will be the body of the penguin. At the second bottle, you only need to cut off the bottom with a small margin - these are the legs. Connect the two parts with a glue gun, paint. Make a pom-pom out of wool and a scarf out of a strip of fabric.

Such crafts are not stable, since plastic is a very light material. In order for the penguins to stand quietly in the chosen place, they must be filled with sand or small pebbles before gluing the parts.

Even plastic lids in skillful hands turn into cute ladybugs. You just need to color them accordingly and stick funny eyes.

If the plastic lids are connected to each other by the edges in the form of a small circle, then you get an original stand for a hot pot or kettle. Such a device is useful in the kitchen.

Flowers and plastic bottles

Flower beds can also be decorated in an original way with plastic bottles. If you take the lower parts of the bottles, paint them in different colors and stick them into the ground next to each other, you can create a flower bed that will “bloom” all year round.

The tops of bottles with caps can also be used as flower pots. They are not stable, but in the form of flower pots they will look fabulous.

From plastic bottles with a volume of 3-5 liters, you get a bright flower bed-train. In each bottle, you need to cut one side part. Paint in different colors. Fill the bottles with earth, transplant garden undersized flowers into them. Lay them horizontally and lean against each other, creating wagons.

Furniture and buildings

The construction of a summer gazebo will require more costs and effort. After all, for construction, you will first need to make a frame of wood or metal. The walls are built from whole bottles, which are strung on a wire or rod.

First, a hole is made in the bottom of the bottle, the cap is unscrewed. A rod with strung bottles is attached to the frame in a horizontal or vertical position.

With the help of bottles, you can create a sofa, armchair, ottoman. Here you must first make separate blocks: seat, armrests, backrest. Then connect them, according to the design. Blocks are best made from 2-liter identical bottles.

On the top of the bottle (where the cap is) you need to put on the bottom of another bottle so that the bottom of the bottle is on both sides. All bottles, blocks are attached to each other with adhesive tape. To make the seat soft - you need a foam block of a suitable size. Sew a cover according to the size of the furniture.
